Re: Printing .LIS files

     A possible solution is to generate a .SPF file.

     The scheduler can use SQRWP.EXE to print the SPF file by invoking the
     command

     SQRWP.EXE myfile.spf -printer:wp

I am planning on using SQR 3.0.10 for Windows NT. This will be used for c=
reating several reports during a night batch. The SQR programs are starte=
d by a separate scheduler and will only produce a .LIS file. The printing=
 of these .LIS file will also be controlled by that scheduler. When testi=
ng this, I found the following problem:
I am using different type of TrueType fonts in my report. The printer I'm=
 using is a HP-Laserjet IV. Printing the .LIS file directly doesn't work =
because the lettertypes are not recognised by the printer. Using a .SPF f=
ile and printing through SQR Viewer works correctly, but cannot be schedu=
led. Therefore using the command line option to print directly under Wind=
ows is also not an option.

What kind of solutions are there for printing .LIS file (or .SPF files) w=
ith TrueType fonts via an external schedule program.
